Starbust Saying

I took Julie's card idea and made this card the other day.  It's sort of a clean and simple kind of card for me.  Kinda like how today is gonna be... simple.  Got a child home from school today, due to teacher's day at school.  I guess I won't be getting much stampin' done.  But not to worry, tomorrow is the start of Sale-a-Bration, and I DO have more cards to share.  So be sure to check back tomorrow for more scoop on Sale-a-Bration!

I'm so excited to show you my card this month.  When I saw the awesome Starburst framelit, I knew I wanted it for my very first Spring Catalog order.  And the coordinating Starburst Sayings just make me happy.

This card was designed based on sketch from PPA185.

Stamp Set(s): Starburst Sayings

Last month, I participated in a Secret Santa exchange with my fellow blog hoppers.  I made this little box to house a couple little gifts for my recipient.

For the paper bow on top, I followed the instructions from HERE.

Of course, this box uses one of my favorite DSPs from the Spring Catalog, the Retro Fresh pack again.

The box itself was fashioned after combining a couple of different ideas (one of them was THIS ONE).  Wanna know how I did it?  Of course you do!  I made a pictorial just for YOU!

Thank you for coming by.  I hope you liked these projects.  Now, please go visit my good friend, Jennifer of NW Stamper's blog.
